Bream Bait Supreme
“Bo” Gregory, of Thomson, has been a bream fisherman
by confession for the past 40 years. During that time, ''Bo”
has had an opportunity to use and observe the effectiveness
qf an inch long, bait your hook and "Bo” declares you will get
sensational results. The larva is tough. Use several on your hook
since you will have an ample supply.
When the larva is white, it floats. When it turns black, it is an adult
and sinks. This recipe will provide you with bait all summer or until
the grain turns black. In this event, add more grain.
This bait has been a favorite of l)r. Ed Wills, and Bernard Freeman,
of Washington. They use no other.
Additional investigation of this bream bait revealed that Pro
fessor Guyton, of the Entomology Department at Auburn, is an
authority on the Soldier Fly. He says it is nothing new and has
been used successfully for years. Professor Guyton savs you can get
the same results using only laying or growing mash and leaving off
the molasses. He suggests that you keep the inside of your can
dark, to discourage house flvs from depositing their eggs. House
flys apparently do not like dark places hut the Soldier Fly doesn’t
mind. He also recommends that you hook the Soldier Fly larva
througn the flat end for best results.
Well, there you are. Bait for a year for only a few cents. Why, you
could go into the bait business with a couple of garbage cans.

Wildlife Species Going, or Gone
Just about everybody knows the tragic story of the passenger pigeon
but few know the story of the Ipswich sparrow, the Eskimo curlew
or the Laysan teal. Once upon a time, all of these animals or birds
were fairly well known on the North American continent. Now, they
are either extinct or dose to it.
Here is a list of wildlife species, many of them already gone from
this earth and many on the ragged edge. Save this list for future
reference. The list includes: the Great Auk, Labrador duck, Carolina
paroquet. Guadalupe caracara. Texas grizzly. Plains erizzlv. Merrinm
elk, Texas mountain sheep, Whooping crane. Great white heron. Masked
bobwhite. Gray whale, Greenland right whale, Ivory hilled woodpecker.
Sandhill crane, Heath hen, Maine giant mink. California grixxly bear,
Tejob grixxly, Fisher. Blackfooted ferret. Wolverine. Sea otter. Desert
fox. Kit fox. Plains wolf, Guadalupe fur seal. Pacific walrus. Atlantic
walrus, Eastern fox squirrel. Nelson mountain sheep. Sierra mountain
sheep, Florida manatee, and the Atlantic right whale.

Your Sinker Problem Solved
Many states, including Georgia, annually stage fishing contests for
youngsters with wonderful results. Now. Oregon is going in for a
program teaching youngsters how to handle a gun, how to shoot and
encouraging greater sportsmanship. This program will pay off, . . .
Why run short of sinkers? Cut an empty shaving cream, or toothpaste
tube into small squares and keep in your tackle box. It Is ideal for
wrap-around sinkers. . . . These holes you see in highway signs were
put there by screwballs having target practice from fast moving auto*
mobiles. There ought to be a law. . . . New fishing and hunting combi
nation licenses go on sole April l.

Food Fish Waste
Fred Dickson, the fisheries biologist, Is somewhat surprised at the
number of edible fish our anglers throw away. The salt water catfish,
although widely condemned, is delicious. Carp, quillbacks, hickory shad,
suckers and the Buffalo are too often thrown away. Properly prepared,
these fish are mighty good eating. Some of them must be boned, some
skinned, and some smoked. It is worth the trouble to get this informa
tion.
Curiosity often is the difference between bright eyes and black
eyes.
One husband says even the weather wouldn’t disagree with his
Self-Employed
Are Warned To
Seek Coverage
Self-employed persons were remin
ded by J. W. Overstreet, manager of
the Macon office of the Social Sec
urity Administration that coverage
under the new law is mandatory and
not voluntary.
“We believe,” he said, "that the
belief that coverage is elective has
gained currency here. While it is
true that certain professionals are
excluded from coverage, the exclus
ion is by law and not by choice.”
Self-employed men and women who
are not excluded by law, will have to
report their 1951 "net earnings” for
social security purposes on their in
come tax returns next March. The
social security tax will be paid at
the same time.
In the meantime, those business
men and women who are now covered
for the first time under social sec
urity should get social security num
bers if they have never done so.
Anyone whose net earnings from
self-employment are S4OO or more
in a taxable year is “covered” under
the new law, unless the earnings are
derived from the operation of a farm

bait “Bo” declares to be far superior to all
others. 1 pass this along to the readers of
this column with the request that, if used,
they will let me know the results.
Hero is the recipe. You will need a five gallon
can. A garbage can will do. Put in a considerable
amount of wheat brand. Then saturate with water
and pour off excess water. Pour in about one-half
gallon of black molasses, it out in the open.
In the spring, a fly resembling a dirt dauber
will lay eggs in the grain. Actually this is the

discover a white larva. When this larva is *4
